Swim test

25 yard pool. (Wouldn’t it be great to have a 50m outdoor
pool to swim in? But with no German senior citizens please!)

50: 36 This might be my new PR or if it is not I certainly at least
matched my old one.

200: 2:47 This is probably my new PR. I am not 100% positive
but I think it is. It was hard!(I need
to start keep track of my swimming PRs somewhere)

1000: 15:50 Not my PR. I think that the fastest I have ever
gone was 15:10 in one of my 3x1000 workouts. Maybe Missy Franklin can swim at
WR pace, then do an easy 5min recovery swim and come back to break another WR but
I am not Missy Franklin yet so 5min easy swim was not enough to recover from
the 200 that had left me trashed. I am just glad I did not drown during the
1000.

I am pretty satisfied overall. Although I thought that I
have more endurance than this. But who cares? It was just to get a baseline.
